Up to now, we’ve been looking at functions represented by a single equation.
In real life, however, functions are represented by a combination of equations, each corresponding to a part of the domain.
These are called piecewise functions.

•First you have to figure out which equation to use•You NEVER use both
X=0This one fitsInto the top equation
So:0+2=2f(0)=2
X=2This one fits hereSo:2(2) + 1 = 5f(2) = 5
X=4
This one fits hereSo:2(4) + 1 = 9f(4) = 9

Writing a piecewise function given the graph.
The break in the graphIs at x=0.
To the left of x=0 the graph is part of the line thru (-2,0) & (0,2)
An equation of this line is:y = x + 2 y = x + 2
To the right of x=0, theGraph is part of the Line thru (0,0) & (2,2)
y = x +0y = x
Notice where the circle & dot are!!

You have a summer job that pays time and a half for overtime. (If you work more than 40 hours) After that it is 1.5 times your hourly rate of $7.00/hr.
1. Write and graph a piecewise function that gives your weekly pay P in terms of the number hours you work h.
2. How much will you make if you work 45 hours?
![Page 19: 2.7 Piecewise Functions p. 114 Up to now, we’ve been looking at functions represented by a single equation. In real life, however, functions are represented](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062323/5697bfa91a28abf838c99c4f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
From 0 to 40 hours you get $7.00/hr: 7h
over 40 you get: 7(40) + (1.5)(7)(h-40) = 7(40) + 10.5(h-40)=10.5h - 140The function is:

So the graph is:

2. P(h) = 10.5h - 140
P(45) = 10.5(45) - 140
= $332.50 for 45 hours of work
